CHECKLIST - BIRDS OF BELIZE
As many as 575 species of birds have been reported
for Belize including many erroneous and/or unverified reports. The actual
number of species for Belize probably numbers somewhere around 540.
More than any other group, birds are subject to reporting from birding
groups and tour guides. Depending on the field guide or checklist used
by those reporting bird records the names applied to species may vary.
There have been some recent taxonomic changes and this list reflects
the A.O.U. through 1998. The most recent published checklist is -- Birds
of Belize: a checklist. Miller, B. W. and C. M. Miller. 1998. Belize
Audubon Society, Belize City, Belize. 40 pp. Since publication several
confirmed species have been added to the list of birds known to occur
in Belize and are included here. Individual species accounts are updated
periodically as new information is added to the database.
